I don't begrudge illegal immigrants their hard work or their struggle. They are a problem -- but they're not at fault.

I also like the Mexican flag.

I think it's a lot prettier than the American flag.

But my question for the activists: if you really do have so much pride in your Mexican heritage that you want to wave that flag here in America, why aren't you trying to bring real progress and reform to Mexico itself? Making it easier for illegals to come here is a displacement strategy, in both the literal and Freudian senses of the word.
